MATTY CAMPOS vs. UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, SEDGWICK CLAIMS MANAGEMENT SERVICES

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted the applicant's Petition for Reconsideration of a prior decision. This action was taken due to statutory time constraints and the need for a more thorough review of the factual and legal issues. The WCAB requires further study of the record to ensure a just and reasoned decision. All future filings are to be submitted in writing directly to the WCAB Commissioners' office.

MARY CAMPOS vs. SECURITAS SECURITY SERVICES

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied Mary Campos's Petition for Removal. Removal is an extraordinary remedy granted only upon a showing of substantial prejudice or irreparable harm, which was not demonstrated here. The Board adopted the WCJ's report in finding that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy if an adverse decision ultimately issues. Therefore, the petition was denied.

FRANCISCO CAMPOS vs. MOYA FARM LABOR, STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration of an award finding a $2\%$ permanent disability rating for an orange picker injured in 2004. The Board held that the revised rating schedule applied as there was no pre-January 1, 2005 medical report indicating permanent disability, and the parties stipulated to temporary disability payments which negated the notice exception. The Board relied on the published appellate decision in *Costco Wholesale Corp. v. Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (Chavez)*.

AARON VILLEGAS vs. CAMPOS TACOS, NATIONAL LIABILITY & FIRE INSURANCE CO.

This case involves a lien claim by an interpreter for services rendered to an applicant who ultimately was found not to be an employee. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration and reversed a prior order disallowing the lien. The WCAB determined that interpreter fees incurred for services at WCAB conferences and hearings are allowable costs under Labor Code section 5811(b), regardless of employee status. However, fees for interpretation at medical or medical-legal appointments were affirmed as not allowable.

LEONARD CAMPOS (deceased) vs. REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, Permissibly Self-Insured, Administered by SEDGWICK CMS, INC.

This case involves a dispute over a lien for medical-legal expenses filed by Dr. Goldfield. The applicant's attorneys seek reconsideration of an award approving a stipulation between the lien claimant and the defendant, arguing it improperly transfers liability for the lien to them. The Appeals Board dismissed the petition, finding the applicant's attorneys are not aggrieved parties because the stipulation only resolved the defendant's liability and did not impose any new obligations on counsel. The Board clarified that Dr. Goldfield's claim against the applicant's counsel for the remaining balance of the lien can still be litigated before the WCJ.

HECTOR CAMPOS vs. DAVID PEET, ALLSTATE INSURANCE

This case involves a petition for reconsideration filed by Hector Campos (Applicant) regarding a Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) decision. The WCAB dismissed the petition because it was untimely filed. The applicant had until August 14, 2017, to file, but the petition was not received until September 11, 2017. Filing deadlines for reconsideration are jurisdictional, meaning the Board lacks authority to consider petitions filed outside the prescribed timeframe.

, CORNELIO CAMPOS, vs. , GOURMETS FRESH PASTA; GALLAGHER BASSETT, INC.,

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied Cornelio Campos' petition for reconsideration of a dismissal order. The Board found that the applicant failed to demonstrate good cause to set aside the dismissal, citing his repeated failure to attend mandatory depositions and hearings. Furthermore, the petition itself was procedurally defective due to an incomplete verification and an improperly attached exhibit. The Board admonished the applicant's attorney for these procedural errors.
